Transactions of the American Philosophical Society held at Philadelphia for promoting useful knowledge

"Held at Philadelphia for promoting useful knowledge."

"Transactions is the oldest scholarly publication in North America, dating back to 1771 and covering various fields of study, ranging from 18th-century American history to the history of science, to various topics in the humanities and scholarly practice. Transactions, which had been publishing a combination of edited issues and monographs, will be moving to a quarterly, all-thematic issue format beginning in 2024. The journal will draw its content from papers given at APS conferences and workshops, as well as a new annual "Useful Knowledge" issue selected from the APS blog, with plans for possible issues drawn from thematically organized grantees' field reports, similar to those scheduled to appear in Proceedings." -- APS website
